Frankly in today's culture, if you have a back yard and at least one kid, you absolutely must have a mini-play-set behind your house or else you're simply a bad person. How dare you not give your child something fun to play on and get their state required exercise!
Of course like most people, you really don't feel like dumping over a grand on something they'll just outgrow in a few years. Never fear, Paul's free swing-set plan is here. Sure it'll take you a few hours of your time to build, but it'll cost you 1/4 the price you'd pay to buy the same thing fully intact. So what are you still waiting for?
